Chapter 702: Chapter 702: Admitting Defeat_1
To Su Chengyu’s surprise, his duel with Lee Longqing was proving to be evenly matched, something even He Lian Xuan had not expected.
"Su Cheng is indeed an outstanding contender. However, Lee Longqing has yet to employ his full strength. The outcome of this battle is not too difficult to predict," said He Lian Xuan.
"Yes! Lee Longqing is, after all, from the Lee family. His heritage and talent alone suffice to place him above his peers. However, Su Cheng is a cultivator. Given time, he might surpass Lee Longqing. I wonder who the Grand Minister favors?"
While watching the battle, Xue Yuqin conversed with He Lian Xuan.
He Lian Xuan replied with a light smile, not answering Xue Yuqin’s question.
Having executed four moves of the ’All-encompassing Fist’, Su Chengyu had gained an upper hand. However, he could feel that this technique was not enough to defeat Lee Longqing.
After exchanging a punch, the two fighters distanced themselves from each other. Su Chengyu gave a loud shout of exhilaration. For him, such a well-matched fight proved to be the best form of training. In the course of the battle, he could feel his mana, Dao Heart, and Dao Foundation being sharpened and strengthened bit by bit.
"Lee Longqing, you are indeed strong."
Su Chengyu readily praised Lee Longqing. It was hard to find a worthy opponent. Although Lee Longqing was arrogant and somewhat irritating, he was a match worthy of Su Chengyu’s admiration.
Lee Longqing responded with a cold snort, "Who in the eastern region isn’t aware of my strength? Although you’ve surprised me. Initially, I thought that I could easily defeat you within twenty moves, but you were able to withstand my attacks for over seventy moves without falling behind. However, that was merely a warm-up. I had not given my all and only used seventy percent of my strength. I believe you’ve used up all your techniques, haven’t you?"
With a light smile, Su Chengyu summoned his Dragon Slayer Sword and held it in his hand.
Lee Longqing said, "I almost forgot – you’re a cultivator who can wield Magic Artifacts. This sword of yours must be a Magic Artifact that can enhance your combat prowess. That’s good because it’s uninteresting if you lose too quickly when I get serious."
Lee Longqing was not wrong. Su Chengyu had almost gone all out in his previous moves. A cultivator at the eighth level of Foundation Establishment Realm could not defeat a Half-Step Martial King.
If one does not consider external factors like Magic Artifacts and talismans and only considers the realms, a cultivator in the Tongxuan Realm could match a Martial Artist in the Martial King Realm.
However, these are two completely different cultivation methods. The actual combat ability still depends on the actual situation. With the support of the Dragon Slayer Sword, Su Chengyu’s strength could be greatly enhanced.
For martial artists, divine weapons have little impact on their combat capabilities. Martial Artists have no mana to stimulate Magic Artifacts and, therefore, cannot unleash the power of the Magic Artifacts.
"I hope your strength matches your mouth," Su Chengyu pointed his longsword, and the sword light flickered. Lee Longqing disdainfully said, "Don’t think you’re the only one with a Magic Artifact! Bring me my sword."
With a loud shout from Lee Longqing, Su Chengyu was indeed taken aback. Was this fellow also a cultivator who could summon Magic Artifacts?
Just as Lee Longqing had finished speaking, a sword really did fly over from the viewing stands of the Martial Arts Field. However, it was not summoned by Lee Longqing, but thrown over by someone.
The person who had thrown the sword to Lee Longqing was a servant – his sword servant. This person was always with Lee Longqing, carrying his sword. The servant was also his personal maid.
Even this sword servant of Lee Longqing had a formidable strength and was a high-ranking Great Grandmaster. She was mature and attractive specialized not only in taking care of Lee Longqing’s daily life but also occasionally sharing his bed. Therefore, her figure and appearance were naturally top-notch.
Lee Longqing wielded the sword, trembling the longsword with a twitch of his wrist, and it emitted a sword chant.
Indeed, Lee Longqing, now with a longsword in hand, appeared much more vigorous than before.
"In my Lee family, there are many ultimate skills including fist techniques, palm techniques, and leg techniques. But do you know which is the strongest among them all? It is swordsmanship."
The ultimate skill of the Lee family is the Seven Kills Sword technique. The Lee family’s Martial Saint had made a significant name for himself using the Seven Kills Sword technique, and countless opponents fell under his sword.
The name of the Lee family’s Seven Kills Sword technique was well known as a top-notch skill throughout the east.
"Once the Seven Kills Sword technique is executed, it’s power is unparalleled, and even I find it challenging to control. We are here to compete, not to fight to the death. Moreover, the Dragon Soul Convention has rules that prohibit killing. You might as well admit defeat to avoid dying under my Seven Kills Sword technique," Lee Longqing pointed his longsword at Su Chengyu and said arrogantly.
"Seven Kills Sword technique...I’ve never heard of it. Are you trying to scare me? Did you win your championship by scaring off your opponents? If that’s the case, my swordsmanship is also difficult to control, and its power is unparalleled. Why don’t you concede defeat to avoid dying under my sword?" Su Chengyu said indifferently.
"You’re insensible! I intended to spare your life, but you’ve bitten the hand that feeds you. Were it not for the rules of the Dragon Soul Convention, I wouldn’t be wasting my breath on you," Lee Longqing said, his eyes flashing with cold light.
Many people below the stage were discussing the situation. They all supported Lee Longqing and ridiculed Su Chengyu for not knowing his limits. The Seven Kills Sword technique of the Lee family had a fearsome reputation. However, this sword technique was extremely difficult to master. It was said that only those at the Martial Saint Realm could truly unleash its power. Even those at the Martial King Realm found it hard to truly control the Seven Kills Sword technique.
Once the sword technique was executed, the user could also be affected by it, becoming unable to suppress their killing intent.
The Seven Kills Sword technique was powerful, but it had its drawbacks. Those with weak determination and insufficient talent were unable to cultivate it. Otherwise, not only would they fail to control the Seven Kills Sword technique, but they could also lose their minds.
When Lee Longqing claimed that he could use the Seven Kills Sword technique, people in the audience were indeed surprised as Lee Longqing was only at the Martial Marquis Realm. Could it be that he wasn’t afraid of backlash when executing the Seven Kills Sword technique?
"Grand Minister, Su Cheng and I have fought to this point. I will soon use the Lee family’s ultimate technique. However, Su Cheng refuses to concede. If he should die under my sword, I hope the Grand Minister would forgive me for breaking the rules," said Lee Longqing to He Lian Xuan.
In fact, Lee Longqing was not quite daring to use the Seven Kills Sword technique. He also feared backlash. The reason he said this was because he wanted He Lian Xuan to intervene.
Lee Longqing’s claim that he had only used seventy percent of his strength was purely showing off. During the previous bout, he had indeed not used his full strength, but he had used ninety percent of it, and he was unable to suppress Su Chengyu; they were evenly matched.
Now that Su Chengyu was wielding a Magic Artifact, Lee Longqing knew that he had to use the Seven Kills Sword technique with all his might if he wanted to defeat Su Chengyu. Su Chengyu’s strength greatly exceeded Lee Longqing’s expectations.
Upon hearing this, He Lian Xuan rose from his seat. His gaze locked onto Su Chengyu and Lee Longqing, and he said, "The Dragon Soul Convention is about making friends through martial arts. It is about winning or losing, not about life or death. This is a rule that cannot be changed. However, I understand the power of the Seven Kills Sword technique quite well. It’s indeed difficult to control as Lee Longqing said."
"Su Cheng, in my opinion, you should concede. You would still be the runner-up of the Dragon Soul Convention. As for the rewards, I would compensate you a bit to avoid any fatal injuries, contradicting the original intention of the Dragon Soul Convention," He Lian Xuan said.
